Thrice Trumpeted Truths-Clearly Spoken 3 Times by Christian author J. Mark Holland is a fascinating Bible study on the occurrence of significant biblical truths repeated in the Scripture.  The author started his search upon noticing this pattern of announcing truths in the Book of Genesis.  To his amazement, he found a unique pattern with regards thrice repetition in scripture.  Over 100 biblical principles and truths are presented in this Biblical study.  The author asks the question of why?  This book answers that important question, and takes note of a pattern as it relates to mankind and to God.  Those who love a challenge, and a unique, but biblically founded material, will find this an interesting adventure that will bless them with knowledge of these principals, giving them a wealth of wisdom that can be applied in one’s life. 

The question one asks is, why is 3 so important.  Upon further investigation, the author correspondingly answers; why should we be surprised that our creator, existing as the trinity, should set forth such patterns.  These patterns exist even in the creation of the universe, in time as the past, present and future, in space that takes length, width and height to measure it, in matter where atoms are made of protons, neutrons and electrons, as well in the natural status of matter that are: solid, liquid and gas, to include the primary colors of red, blue and yellow from which other colors are made.  This is an exciting study that will open the readers' mind to the truth and certainty of scripture given three times, where God is saying, “Did you not hear me?  I said it three times.”  The reader will be challenged to take seriously scripture that is mentioned in triplet in that it is also a call to obedience to God, His Word and the Scripture.

This is an amazing and analytical read that ties all the loose ends of this question, why 3 and what is the significance together.  Not only will the reader understand that God is a God of order and that numbers have hidden meanings, but one will be amazed at the absoluteness of this pattern set forth and the meaning.  This Bible study is recommended for Pastors, small group leaders or for the individual.  A fascinating, highly recommended Bible study.

Thrice Trumpeted Truths: Clearly Spoken 3 Times

Question: Why three? Answer: Curiosity! My curiosity was generated by numerous multiple repeats in the Scriptures. (See Genesis 6, 7, 8: Appendix A) The list is fascinating. "The search began with a question: Are there any significant, uniquely stated triples? We found that triples reverberate throughout the Scripture. More than 100 are identified in this study. It is as if the Lord is saying to the hard of heeding, Did you not hear me? I said it three times" -J. Mark Holland "An interesting and compelling study! Once one starts looking for and finding triplets in God's Word, their importance and significance is magnified" -Bruce Etcheson "This is a book that accomplishes two things: First, it challenges a reader to seriously consider God's use of repetition in His Word to reinforce His truth; second, it leads the reader into knowing why obedience is a proper choice when confronted with God's repeated truths" -David White "The strong foundational truths of this study have not only taken me on a jet tour through the birth, death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, but it has also been an adventure to search out the golden nuggets of God's precious Word in triplets. I trust that you will be thrice blessed as well, as you see the powerful Gospel of Jesus Christ interwoven throughout its pages" -Sandy Lange (member of the original study group) ...

About The Author

J. Mark Holland



Mark and his wife of fifty-four years, Phyllis, live in Watertown, Wisconsin. Mark retired after thirty-nine years of ministry, including thirty-six years of teaching in Christian schools: elementary, secondary, with twenty-six years at the college level. They have three children, with two born in Puerto Rico, and six grandchildren.

Mark grew up in a Christian home in which Bible study was a regular routine. He attended grades 6, 7, 8 in a parochial school, memorizing hundreds of scripture verses and then to a Christian high school in which the Bible classes focused on the Bible itself. Then came three years of Bible Institute study, followed by approximately 5 years in three universities including both a B.S. and M.A degree.  In 2003 he was awarded the degree,  D.Hum.

He taught Bible, Math, and Science in Christian elementary and high schools followed by 26 years as a Bible college faculty member. Thus, Bible study has been his heart's desire.  The personal study resulting in Thrice Trumpeted Truths is a capstone effort and could only be possible by a foundational knowledge of the English Bible with “computer searches” to verify the findings of more than 100 unique, triple proclamations.
